Availability

I have a number of clientele I provide reoccurring weekly dog walking for but I can always attend to your pets a multitude of times throughout the day. I am available to house sit in the evenings and overnight. I’m usually out in the field from 8/9am-7/8pm so I can attend to your pets in the morning as well.

Pet care experience

I am nurturing and have experience with dominant dogs. I'm not afraid of any large breed and can generally be well received with the vibes I give out to the animal. I have no problem pushing past that barrier of fear so l believe I'm overly qualified to take care of any breed of dog.

Joesph had taken the absolute BEST care of my pup moving to a new place for almost a year. He was always flexible and extremely reliable. Without having such a caring dog sitter, me and Duke (my dog) would have struggled. HIGHLY Recommend.

Joseph was absolutely wonderful with our two chihuahuas while we were out of the country for two weeks. He helped give my parents much-needed caregiver relief by walking the dogs every other day, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. He was professional, punctual, reliable, and very communicative with both us and my parents. Even while we were abroad, Joseph consistently sent updates, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were being well cared for. We would absolutely recommend Joseph to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and thoughtful dog sitter.

Great job Joseph. Thanks for watering my plants and going the extra mile by taking care of unexpected ant problems.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
